Brooklyn TotePack (new pdf pattern)

I've been a great fan of convertible tote bags + backpacks for quite some time as I find them super practical and useful so, not surprisingly, I'm beyond excited to present my newest pattern for a Brooklyn TotePack to you today :)

She's quite something, isn't she?

She's just the right size to fit everything one might need on a daily basis and all the handy pockets make keeping things in place and organized a breeze. I especially love the back panel zipper pocket as it's perfect to keep one's wallet or phone safe yet within easy reach.

The pattern includes instructions on how to add yet another zipper pocket in the lining as well as a smaller slip pocket, 

.... plus the main zipper closure to keep everything inside one's totepack secure.

I've been using my Brooklyn TotePack for weeks now and can totally vouch for it being a super useful and handy everyday bag :)
